Re: Is it too late to play badminton?

Of course it would be a great advantage to begin as early as possible with a good coach. But if just want to learn and enjoy the game, being a 18-year old is young! We have one player in our weekly badminton group who can beat many younger players and believe it or not he is 63 years of age!

Re: Is it too late to play badminton?

Just for confidence, Michael Jordan, arguably one of the greatest athletes ever, reached his prime in his thirties. I think 18 is a great age to start. I started at 22 and I'm 27 now, and I do ok in tourneys. I know I still have room for improvement, but i don't think my age is slowing me down. I say go for it!

Re: Is it too late to play badminton?

hi!
just want to say that it's never too late,if you like badminton and put some effort into it,you can become quite good very fast.
Take me for example,from the first time i touch a badminton racquet to my first
medal,only 8 months.
I finished 2nd in single and doubles at the JEUX DU QUEBEC.
So don't worry about the age thing!

Re: Is it too late to play badminton?

U want to know??? Okay then.
I am from singapore, am a twelve-year-old female, and I think that I can say that I am the youngest in this forum. How I got into badminton??? U want the real one or the false one??? The real one is: I got dragged into being my best friends partner for a inter-class competitiom. As for the false one I will get back tou, haven't thought of one yet.
